Hey all, thought this would be worth sharing. Poor Drakey got some nasty hot spots on his tail and we had to take him to the vet. Long story short, his tail had to be shaved so the sores could heal and this was the result. It looks kind of like a French Poodle tail, but I like to call it his "Lion tail" so he doesn't get a complex. I swear he is embarrassed by it. Everybody laughs when they see him, POOR BUDDY!!! We just hope it grows back quickly. I added the last picture from our Tahoe trip last weekend for a more majestic look of his tail, I don't think the beautiful scenery helps much, he still looks funny.
